antihistamine

Avatar n tn My daughter is suffering from eczema from the time she was 2 months old. Her Ped prescribed antihistamine for itching. We are concerned about the side effects. She does not have any immune system related issues. Her itching increases during the night time and it has been severe since the past 2-3 weeks. Only now we started giving her antihistamine and are concerned about the side effects. Is there any other way to stop her itching.
Avatar n tn I itch all over my body. There is no rash or redness. I am 76, light skinned, blue eyes, healthy except for this.
Avatar f tn You may have "physical" or Cholinergic urticaria". Any rash (hives) appear together with itching? Next time when itching start take an antihistamine pill (like Benadryl). If this will help you, it means you have physical urticaria (allergy to heat in your case).
Avatar n tn After a severe bacterial infection which affected my hearing, I have developed severe uncontrollable almost burning itching in feet, legs and arms - always at night - rarely during the daytime. No rash or welts. Antihistamin clears it up within 30 minutes. Can you help?
Avatar n tn They itched mildly for about 5 days (nothing as intense as poison ivy) and Itch-X stopped the itching. Now they appear to be healing but have become painful. There is one larger spot on the left side of my back that started itching after the rest stopped. I've never had anything like this and am wondering what it might be. Thank you.
Avatar n tn I recently started using a new body wash, and after a couple of days 4-5 uses, I started to develop a rash all over my body which is accompanied by extreme itching. I've since stopped using the body wash and switched back to soap. I've also started using benadryll to relieve the itching. It's been a few days but the rash hasn't started to go away yet. How long does it usually take for the skin to clear up, and are there any other treatments for it?
Avatar m tn I have very sensitive skin and I had hoped the rash was just from the rubbing of our pubic air and I simply put hydrocortisone on it to reduce the itching. Two days have gone by and the rash has not subsided and still itches. Is this herpes or some other STD?
Avatar n tn I get rashes on my body that it kind of warm feeling, it cannot stop itching. it goes away and then just comes out somewhere else? It is driving me crazy! what could it be?
Avatar n tn what exactly can i use to help stop itching and rash pn my lower and upper legs? This discussion is related to <a href='/posts/show/241193'>Itchy legs, no sign of rash or irritation</a>.
Avatar n tn For 6-7 days new body areas became covered in an intolerably itchy rash Over the counter antihistamine helped with the itch. The other thing that helped was scratching spots until I had a small amount of blood -- just a drop or two, and just two or three scratched spots per area (i.e., two or three small spots on my left thigh helped out the whole thigh.) Within a bit more than a week, rash had disappeared from all body except two areas: the area of cleavage and under the breasts.

7552339 tn?1391962184 yes I had the chicken pox one time. But its def. not that. I have used antihistamine, cortisone cream, and antifungal and nothing is working..
Avatar n tn I use Benadryl tabs and hydrocortisone cream for the rash and itching on the body. Also a mild lotion to combat dry skin. The benadryl may help your anal itching. Also keeping sqeaky clean helps. Many of us use Huggies baby wipes every time we go. However, if you have hemorrhoids you can also use hemorrhoid cream and hemorrhoid suppositories and they do help. Keep the room temp. low. Resist scratching. Cold packs on a particularly itchy area may help. Hope that helps.
Avatar n tn About three months ago I developed what has been diagnosed by a urologist as a bacterial bladder infection in the left side of my bladder. Around the same time my left hip began itching, but there is absolutely no rash, visible swelling, bumps, or redness. Now I cannot lay on my left side or it highly irritates it. I visited another doctor who took xrays and says that is is likely bursitis in the hip, but does not understand the itching.
Avatar n tn Is it common that these might cause a rash? I do not have any rash on other parts of my body....just my neck and upper chest area.
4798753 tn?1359322303 Benadryl and a liberal application of cortaid helped keep the rash and itching at somewhat manageable levels. By the sixth day, the rash and itching had disappearred. For the following 36 weeks of treatment, I still had dry, itchy skin, but nothing like what I had during the Incivek withdrawal period. I think this might be a normal withdrawal side effect, because I've heard others mention similar experiences. If it gets worse or doesn't improve after 7 days, call your doctor.
Avatar f tn If your symptoms are worse at night, pls take an antihistamine like benadryl to reduce itching until topical treatments take effect. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
Avatar n tn For about 22years now, I have had this chronic unyielding, head to toe itch with no rash. The only thing that helps is a daily antihistamine. There is no rash or real explanation on what the true trigger is. Doctors think it's in my head. I take a daily allergy pill and have for 22 years.
